Kursusindhold:
Typically, the Master Project will concern an important or urgent
strategic business problem that involves specific functions or
processes within the organisation. Consequently, the Master Project
will treat a problematic business problem of a strategic nature in
a thorough and well argued, cross -disciplinary, and
action-oriented way. The outcome of the work in the form of
proposed solutions should be practically applicable in the context
of the organisation. The proposed solutions must be implementable.
In accordance with the objective of the MMT program, the project
(in addition to its strategic purpose and as necessary or relevant)
considers aspects like innovation, business development, or change
management as viewed from the perspective of technological,
economic, or market forces at work in the organisation’s
environment.
The course in communication management supports the master project
by putting it into the context of new social media. Furthermore, it
develops the skills in oral and written communication.
